Is it possible to add outside assessment to a course

Hi, Mayank.

What I need is some way of assessing the learner from outside - i.e. the course should train skills, but an outside eye sees whether they incorporate learnings into their work. Across our business, we find there is often a gap between training and incorporating that training on the job. In other words, knowing something is one thing, doing it is another, and we need an assessment on the doing as part of the course. That gap is one of our biggest issues. For example, the course could give you the theory of how to drive a forklift, but at some point the learner needs to get behind the wheel, and I need some way of someone who isn't the learner saying they are ready to operate the machine, not just that they studied the theory. It needs to be incorporated into the course, ideally with reminders sent to the instructor/manager, ideally with a grade. 

If, however, that is not possible, could we use certification? Usual certification seems to be based simply upon completing the course work, which again only tells me that the learner understands the theory. I see there is also the possibility of 3rd party certification. That could work, with the 3rd party being the manager/instructor. I can't find how the third party adds the certification in Prime. What's the mechanism for this?
